Hello, I'm Michiel Hamers, a Solution Lead in Azure Cloud & Application Lifecycle Management, currently working at Ordina, a Sopra Steria company. I'm an IT-nerd, trainer, Microsoft Azure MVP, and passionate speaker with a relentless focus on cloud technologies.

💼 Professionally, I specialize in Azure, and I'm dedicated to simplifying complex cloud applications. Born to learn and share knowledge, I have spent over 20 years in the IT industry, starting as a Microsoft Certified Professional in 2002 and becoming a Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT) in 2021. In 2023, I was honored with the prestigious title of Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP).

🎤 As a frequent speaker, you can catch me at various international events, including Azconf'22 in Chennai, India, and many more. I've shared my insights at Developerweek, FutureTech, and the PowerShell + DevOps Global Summit. One event I'm particularly excited about is the European Cloud Summit, a major gathering where I'll have the privilege of speaking.

🚀 My mission is to empower others with Azure expertise and cost management strategies, helping businesses thrive while being financially savvy. Whether I'm teaching kids the basics of code at CoderDojo or presenting at major tech conferences, my enthusiasm for the cloud and learning knows no bounds.

🏃 Outside of tech, you'll find me enjoying a 5K run and spending time with my family.
